Question
Answer
compressor   reduce the dynamic range of signal. turn down the louds, bring up the lows  
🗑
Limiter   compressors with high ratios  
🗑
threshold   the level at which compression begins  
🗑
ratio   the difference between how much volume exceeds the input and how much the output is produced  
🗑
gain reduction   how much volume the compressor has taken.  
🗑
output   compressor setting that compensates for the gain reduction  
🗑
attack   the time it takes for the compressor to react  
🗑
release   the time it takes for the compressor to cease gain reduction after the signal has dropped back below the threshold  
🗑
knee   how the compressor engages the audio as its volume rises toward and over the threshold  
🗑
expander   used to increase dynamic range  
🗑
gate   it turns volume down all the way so theres no output below threshold  
🗑
range   the maximum amount that the expander is allowed to turn the signal down.
